Psalms of the Brethren XLIX: Ramaneyyaka
Translated by Mrs. C. A. F. Rhys Davids (1913) · From Psalms of the Early Buddhists II: Psalms of the Brethren (1913)
Religion
Not all the clitter-clatter of your noise,
No more than chirp and squeal of forest sounds,
Avail to make pulse throb or mind distraught,
For one the aim to which my heart is given.
